We derive an inequality that relates nodal set and eigenvalues of a class of twisted Dirac operators on closed surfaces and point out how this inequality naturally arises as an eigenvalue estimate for the $\rm Spin^c$ Dirac operator. This…

We study perturbed Dirac operators of the form $ D_s= D + s\A :\Gamma(E^0)\rightarrow \Gamma(E^1)$ over a compact Riemannian manifold $(X, g)$ with symbol $c$ and special bundle maps $\A : E^0\rightarrow E^1$ for $s>>0$. Under a simple…

We provide a comprehensive lattice formulation of various types of the Dirac operator indices, employing $K$-theory to classify the Wilson Dirac operator via its spectral flow. In contrast to the index of the overlap Dirac operator defined…

The main purpose of this paper is to show the existence of action-angle variables for integrable Hamiltonian systems on Dirac manifolds under some natural regularity and compactness conditions, using the torus action approach. We show that…

We find all spin operators for a Dirac particle satisfying the following very general conditions: (i) spin does not convert positive (negative) energy states into negative (positive) energy states, (ii) spin is a pseudo-vector, and (iii)…

The smooth action of a compact Lie group on a compact manifold can be resolved to an iterated space, as made explicit by Pierre Albin and the second author. On the resolution the lifted action has fixed isotropy type, in an iterated sense,…

In this survey paper, we will collate various different ideas and thoughts regarding equivariant operations on quantum cohomology (and some in more general Floer theory) for a symplectic manifold. We will discuss a general notion of…

We introduce an invariant of a pair of commuting invertible matrices that we call the rotation index. We apply this invariant, together with the Milnor--Munkres--Novikov pairing, to the study of some questions about group actions of…

We show the existence of nonsymmetric homogeneous spin Riemannian manifolds whose Dirac operator is like that on a Riemannian symmetric spin space. Such manifolds are exactly the homogeneous spin Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ which are…

We construct the coarse index class with support condition (as an element of coarse $K$-homology) of an equivariant Dirac operator on a complete Riemannian manifold endowed with a proper, isometric action of a group. We further show a…

In this paper, we give a Lichnerowicz type formula for the J-twist D_J of the Dirac operator. And we prove a Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorem for the J-twist D_J of the Dirac operator on 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional almost product…

In this paper, we describe the group SpinT (n) and give some properties of this group. We construct SpinT spinor bundle S by means of the spinor representation of the group SpinT (n) and define covariant derivative operator and Dirac…

In this article, we prove a Sobolev-like inequality for the Dirac operator on closed compact Riemannian spin manifolds with a nearly optimal Sobolev constant. As an application, we give a criterion for the existence of solutions to a…

By a result of Nagy, the C*-algebra of continuous functions on the q-deformation G_q of a simply connected semisimple compact Lie group G is KK-equivalent to C(G). We show that under this equivalence the K-homology class of the Dirac…

We give a survey of results relating the restricted holonomy of a Riemannian spin manifold with lower bounds on the spectrum of its Dirac operator, giving a new proof of a result originally due to Kirchberg.

We introduce a new class of natural, explicitly defined, transversally elliptic differential operators over manifolds with compact group actions. Under certain assumptions, the symbols of these operators generate all the possible values of…

When a cyclic group G of prime order acts on a 4-manifold X, we prove a formula which relates the Seiberg-Witten invariants of X to those of X/G.

We mathematically show an equality between the index of a Dirac operator on a flat continuum torus and the $\eta$ invariant of a lattice Dirac operator known as the Wilson Dirac operator with a negative mass when the lattice spacing is…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian spin manifold. The Atiyah-Singer index theorem yields a lower bound for the dimension of the kernel of the Dirac operator. We prove that this bound can be attained by changing the Riemannian metric g on an…

We define an analytic index and prove a topological index theorem for a non-compact manifold $M\_0$ with poly-cylindrical ends. We prove that an elliptic operator $P$ on $M\_0$ has an invertible perturbation $P+R$ by a lower order operator…
